Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, October 17, 2025 Jodie Turner-Smith and Joshua Jackson have called off their child custody trial, opting instead to go back to the negotiating table with a private judge.

What Else Victoria’s Secret has an audience I am not the audience for Victoria’s Secret in 2025; the Blue Jays game was on last night, that was the priority. The only part of the VS show I watched, this morning, was Karol G’s performance and it was terrific. That said, I was talking to a By Lainey • Oct 16, 2025 04:39 pm
Style Jodie wears the grid As we have seen, Jodie Turner- Smith’s wardrobe for the Tron: Ares press tour has been outstanding.

Quiveration Jodie and the boys at Burberry The big event yesterday at London Fashion Week was the Burberry show, and it was a very Burberry show – a lot of plaid, so many gorgeous coats and boots and bags.

Movie Reviews and Previews Crying with Kogonada You know who I can count on to make me cry every time? Kogonada. He’s made two feature films, Columbus and After Yang, both of which are very particular visions and works of deep sensitivity. I had a very lovely healing cry at the end of Columbus, and something By Sarah • Jun 04, 2025 10:39 am
Met Gala 2025 Jodie Turner-Smith: Met Gala 2025 Best Dressed (Lainey) I said in an earlier post today that the fashion last night at the Met Gala was overall the best we’ve seen in years. Certainly better than the clump of trees that happened last year. And mostly because those who understood the assignment were model students of Professor Monica By Lainey • May 06, 2025 02:35 pm

I feel like they’ll By Lainey • Apr 23, 2025 11:18 am

Among the honorees was Oscar nominee Cynthia Erivo, in a GREAT tulle dress. This dress says “Wicked” without also saying “costume”, which is how theme dressing should be. Also present was Keke By Sarah • Feb 28, 2025 12:00 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Becks is back (and mostly naked) David Beckham is normally not my jam, but I caught a glimpse of his new Boss One Bodywear campaign and had a real moment.

Style Couples: Classic, Seasonal, Potential We spend a lot of time shipping couples – and TNT has taken up a lot of our shipping energy these last nine months – but there is a couple we do not spend enough time appreciating, collectively: Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon.

Break Ups Jodie Turner-Smith: Single mom in a pink suit I linked to E Alex Jung’s piece on Jodie Turner-Smith for The Cut last week in What Else?, and this is where I want to start, because there’s a lot of gossip but also a lot of film and television industry insight that applies to any business, any By Lainey • Jun 20, 2024 03:23 pm
